2. ipage hosting reviews

Let's start ipage reviews by reviewing it's very popular money back
guarantee. Though the ipage money back guarantee commits to return back
money at any time without a question and is very popular also but what
most people don't know, is the amount returned to a buyer at the time of
cancellation of service is calculated on a rule which is formed on two
basis:

i. Remaining Period.
ii. The early cancellation charge.

MONEY REFUND RULE = { Remaining Period - cancellation charge}
This money refund rule might sound disappointing but it is far better
than getting no refund at all, which in fact is the case with most of
the web hosting companies.
Ipage is a web hosting company situated in Boston, started in 1998,
currently registering more than half million domains and hosting more
than a million websites on it's server.
Ipage was initially set to Boston but as it was now sold to Endurance
International Group, the company expanded it's branches in 150 countries

Webhostinghub has 3 servers which are placed in 3 cities of USA namely
New York, Florida and California and it's operating center or say the
main office is in Virginia. Though the company claims to be founded in
2001 but since the dns records says that the domain got registered back
in 2011, do raises a question mark in it's claiming. But if we leave
it's dns records and it's claims a side and focus on rest of the
reviewings, we find that webhostinghub has much to offer to it's
clients. With a stand alone "shared hosting" plan starting with just
$4.95 is one fit plan for all types of business needs.

Why I started this web hosting review blog?

Unlike past more and more companies are focusing their businesses nature
online. In order to showcase products and find potential customers
online the very first priority is to find a domain name registrar and a
web hosting company. But we don't know which web host will fit with our
nature of business, Which web hosting provider provides optimum
server up time, support services etc. Believe me, I have suffered many
business failures just because of server down problems. I understood at
just an age of 16 years that I am talented in IT field. My hunt for
talent finished with the launch of my first website in "form 3" and
since then till present I am constantly devoting my time and energy
towards IT industry. The most tough thing for me as a new buy in IT was
to choose a good web hosting provider for my website. Believe me I have
changed my website hosting server 3 times in a year because of server
down problems. There are many web hosting companies with their tall
claims like quality services, award wining support, 99.9% up time
guarantee etc, but all these claims are not met by most of the
companies. The point which always strike my mind was a review service.
A tool-free service to perform web hosting reviews. You must be thinking
that I am going crazy now but I always dream that, what if a web
hosting company ask you to take web hosting services on a review basis
for say a month or two and then charge you, So in that way it will help
you perform their web hosting review and make up your mind to continue
with them. Though that type of web hosting reviews is only possible if
web hosting companies let us do but since they charge for web hosting
weather you want it on review basis or for use, this limits an
Individual from performing web hosting reviews. To solve this review
problem, I spend my money and time to review each webhosting companies
personally and help you choose the right web host for your business. So
that when you take web hosting services you forget about performing
reviews and feel comfortable in choosing the web host for your business.

Reviews Phase 1: This review phase is simple and is just a general
review of a web host. I simple check for things like Plan types, It's
cost, Up time guarantee, Trust and Authority, Experience, Services,
Exclusive offers etc. After reviewing all these I simply go for the web
hosting. I pretend like I am a new buy who don't even know like how to
pay, Create email id, Upload files through ftp programs. I just play my
self like a new guy who is not familiar with even control panel and this
helps me review their support services. Here I also try to test the
knowledge of their technical team by raising issues like virus problems,
scripts installation etc.

Review Phase 2: This review phase starts after the completion of review
phase 1. This phase is not a general phase i.e. It involves those
activities which a normal user will never perform for web hosting
review. The review phase starts by testing server speed using speed test
meter. Then using Pingdom services to completely review every aspects
of web hosting. Since my review process involves buying web hosting and
and using their servers in order to tackle real world problems, this
piece of process helps me give out much realistic reviews for my blog
readers.

How do I evaluated web hosting review score?

I evaluate the web hosting review score of a web hosts by using multiple factors score:

1.
RELIABILITY:- The the most important aspect of all when it comes to
review a web hosting company is reliability. For a business
to succeed online it's web host should provide 99.9%
server reliability and up time guarantee. Major Search engines like
Google, Yahoo, Msn etc will never love a website which has server fault
or is having server downtime and if they don't love it they will never
put your website high up in their search results and you end up loosing
customers. Server up time and reliability is what most of the SEO
companies want to insure first. It is well known in SEO community that
server down time has serious negative impact in your SEO effort. So in
my web hosting review score, reliability is in the topnotch priority.

2. SPEED SCORE: The second most important aspect which I look in a web
hosting company while performing their hosting reviews is Speed.
A web hosting can include a plan for unlimited disk space and bandwidth
in their sales page but might limit your web server speed so that if
your website gets too popular and is using high server bandwidth, by
limiting the speed helps web hosting companies to limit the use of their
server because your website has access to limited data transfer/sec and
this makes your site busy and it loads very poorly. Now this practice
will help a webhosting company but for a website, it's something which a
webmaster should never let happen and it is very annoying to your
site's loyal visitors. So here I check different speed parameters and
then I assign speed score points to get added in web hosting reviews
report.

3. USABILITY SCORE: Their is no point in neglecting the usability factor
when performing web hosting reviews. It is tendency of newbies to
neglect the usability factor just because of either lower price or
higher bandwidth offer. But most webmasters know the importance of
Usability.e.g. A task like WordPress installation can be done either
manually or if the web hosting company provides simple scripts in
control panel for single click CMS installation. With simple scripts in
control panel can save your lot amount of time and hence make you more
productive. Another thing when it comes to usability is the use of
control panels. There are many control panels available in the market
but the most easy and usable one is C panel. So it is important to
choose a web host that provides c panel control panel for use. So here I
check different usability parameters and then I assign usability score
points to be added in web hosting reviews report.

4. FEATURES SCORE: Features are indeed important in web hosting
reviews. What most of the people think of features in a web hosting plan
is disk space and bandwidth. Though disk space and bandwidth are the
most important one, but that's not. Think of a web hosting company which
provides features like free Google and FB credit, free website
submission in yellopages etc. All these features can prove icing in a
business growth and one should never miss these features from
availing. So here I check different features and then
I assign feature score points to be added in web hosting reviews report.

5. PRICE SCORE: This review score deals with calculation
the worthiness of price. Do you really get return on investment? Though
the call is to check ROI and price worthiness but their are other things
like easy payment option, money back guarantee, secure payment, privacy
policy, billing terms, Tax information etc which I try to figure out
as well.
So here I check ROI and other price features and then assign Price score points to be added in web hosting reviews report.

6.CUSTOMER
SUPPORT: If you are new to IT field, customer support will be something
which you gonna be needing the most. Since web hosting is a digital
product and you have no physical support so customer support plays an
important role in both technical and customer support. Things like fast
and intelligent technical technical support, online Ticket support, live
chat are the Hallmark of a Good web hosting company. In order for me to
assign customer support points, I test customer support department of a
company by checking there response time and quality of response, Do
they really take your call important? etc.
